Have you seen this:
http://www.mono-project.com/Parallel_Mono_Environments
It's what I've been following repeatedly with different mono versions
over the last couple of years. Building from released source tar
balls.
I think one of the key differences compared to how I understand what
you've been doing is that you should redirect the install path
completely to not mix with any directory commonly used. I.e. för Mono
2.10.8 I used
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mono-2.10.8
Repeat the --prefix clause on every configure script in the same "set"
of packages. It will then all install neatly and not corrupt anything.
Couple that with a helper script as detailed on the page to setup the
correct environment variables, and things seems to work out rather
nicely.
Also, remember that for everything except libgdiplus and mono itself,
you need to be inside the environment created by the script in order
for the builds of the remaining packages to build against the intended
mono version.
I've attached some notes from when I last built mono 2.10, with the
configure invocations and expected output I used. At the top a list a
number of native dependencies that I was able to satisfy using regular
apt-get. I also attach the helper scripts I use to execute mono for
this environment - these two files are the only ones that go in
/usr/local/bin. After having installed libgdiplus and mono you should
be able to do:
$ mono210 mono --version
and
$ source mono210env
[mono210]$ mono --version
When that is working, you can have a look at remaining packages if you
like. Remember to do this from "inside" "source mono210env".
